Although it pains me I just couldn't vote for Start as far too similar to Taxman

Could only vote for MASH and Bowie this round.

Was BlackStar.

Any other questions?

Ashes to Ashes is one of the greatest songs of all time.

These polls just serve to summarise what a dearth of decent music there was in the 80s

A dearth of decent number ones, I would counter. Look through the charts throughout the first half of the 1980s and I think you'd see there were many great bands and artists. Number one hits don't give a clear picture.

Bowie - Heh, it's a great song.
Odyssey - Memories of DJ'ing Langfords Hotel. 12" version of course.

 

[SK1NT]

Not keen on any of them... however i still voted.... How i imagine i shall feel voting on 8th June.

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

The winner takes it all.

I'm sure some people will vote Bowie because they are TOO SCARED to admit that ABBA's BANGER should take this round.

 

[Marshy]

Bowie all day long
